TRADE
FACILITATI
ON
Process of eliminating all unnecessary
elements and duplications in formalities,
processes and procedures

operations and their data with international
conventions, standards and practices
Process of developing internationally
agreed formats for practices and
procedures, documents and information
Simplification
Harmonization
Standardization

• Endorsed by key international organizations
• E.g. Basis for the EU Single Administrative Document (SAD)
• All data elements in UNLK aligned documents have electronic equivalents in UN/EDIFACT, UN/CCL, …
• Recommendation has recently been revised

UN/CEFACT –
Semantic Hub for Standardization
Buy Pay Ship
Commercial Procedures •Establish sales contract •Order goods •Advise on delivery •Request payment
Transport Procedures •Establish transport contract •Collect, transport and deliver goods •Provide waybills, •Goods receipts, etc.
Regulatory Procedures •Obtain im/export licenses etc. •Provide Customs Declarations •Provide cargo Declarations •Apply security measures •Clear goods
Financial Procedures •Provide credit rating •Insurance •Execute payment •Issue statements
The UN/CEFACT evolution / revolution
Exchange-syntax neutral Reference Data Model
approach
oFrom Document centric to Process driven artefacts
(Contextualized Business Artefacts)
oSupports Document centric & Process driven
workflows and APIs
oStandardized syntax-neutral data exchange
structures, based on common Master data exchange
structure
(from which complete documents and/or snippets of documents
can be created in any chosen syntax e.g. XML, JSON or
UN/EDIFACT etc.)
14
UN/CEFACT
BUY-SHIP-PAY Reference Data Models
• Cover the data requirements of the international supply chain (BUY-SHIP-PAY) process model
• Share a common library (subset of the UN/CEFACT Core Component Library – CCL)
• Include “Master” exchange syntax neutral message structures for developing process aligned subset structures
• Subset message structures can be realized into any required exchange syntax (e.g. JASON, any XML or EDIFACT etc.)
• Support collaborative information sharing • such as enabled by data exchange pipelines

Global Trade – Semantic Anchors
• Shipment (Trade Delivery)
• A shipment is an identifiable collection of one or more Trade Items (available to be) transported together from the Seller (Original Consignor/Shipper) to the Buyer (Final/Ultimate Consignee):
A Shipment can only be destined for one Buyer
A Shipment can be made up of some or all Trade Items from one or more Sales Orders
A Shipment can have only one Customs UCR
A shipment may form part or all of a Consignment or may be transported in different Consignments.
• Consignment
• A consignment is a separately identifiable collection of Consignment Items (available to be) transported from one Consignor to one Consignee via one or more modes of transport as specified in one single transport service contractual document:
A Consignment can only have one Transport Service Buyer
A Consignment can only have one Transport Service Provider
A Consignment can only have one Consignor
A Consignment can only have one Consignee
The Transport Service Buyer can be either the Consignor or the Consignee
A Consignment is made up of one or more Consignment Items
A Consignment can be made up of some or all Trade Items (aggregated into Consignment Items) from one or more Shipments
